Acts 14 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

Act 14:1And it came to pass in Iconium that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake that a great multitude of both Jews and Greeks believed.
Act 14:2But the Jews who did not believe stirred up the minds of those of the nations and made them evil-affected against the brethren.
Act 14:3They stayed therefore a good while, speaking boldly, confiding in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace, giving signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
Act 14:4And the multitude of the city was divided, and some were with the Jews and some with the apostles.
Act 14:5And when an assault was making, both of those of the nations and the Jews with their rulers, to use them ill and stone them,
Act 14:6they, being aware of it, fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the surrounding country,
Act 14:7and there they were announcing the glad tidings.
Act 14:8And a certain man in Lystra, impotent in his feet, sat, being lame from his mother's womb, who had never walked.
Act 14:9This man heard Paul speaking, who, fixing his eyes on him, and seeing that he had faith to be healed,
Act 14:10said with a loud voice, Rise up straight upon thy feet: and he sprang up and walked.
Act 14:11But the crowds, who saw what Paul had done, lifted up their voices in Lycaonian, saying, The gods, having made themselves like men, are come down to us.
Act 14:12And they called Barnabas Jupiter, and Paul Mercury, because he took the lead in speaking.
Act 14:13And the priest of Jupiter who was before the city, having brought bulls and garlands to the gates, would have done sacrifice along with the crowds.
Act 14:14But the apostles Barnabas and Paul, having heard it, rent their garments, and rushed out to the crowd, crying
Act 14:15and saying, Men, why do ye these things? *We* also are men of like passions with you, preaching to you to turn from these vanities to the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things in them;
Act 14:16who in the past generations suffered all the nations to go in their own ways,
Act 14:17though indeed he did not leave himself without witness, doing good, and giving to you from heaven rain and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.
Act 14:18And saying these things, they with difficulty kept the crowds from sacrificing to them.
Act 14:19But there came Jews from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds and stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing him to have died.
Act 14:20But while the disciples encircled him, he rose up and entered into the city. And on the morrow he went away with Barnabas to Derbe.
Act 14:21And having announced the glad tidings to that city, and having made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, and Iconium, and Antioch,
Act 14:22establishing the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to abide in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.
Act 14:23And having chosen them elders in each assembly, having prayed with fastings, they committed them to the Lord, on whom they had believed.
Act 14:24And having passed through Pisidia they came to Pamphylia,
Act 14:25and having spoken the word in Perga, they came down to Attalia;
Act 14:26and thence they sailed away to Antioch, whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.
Act 14:27And having arrived, and having brought together the assembly, they related to them all that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the nations.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
